This offers the opportunity to review and re-design services with the aim of placing the Councils and the CCG in a position whereby they may offer carer services as a sizeable, combined, opportunity to the supply market with a contract(s) commencing in February 2020. To assist this work we would like to engage with representatives from interested organisations to seek and gather views regarding the specification and procurement approach. This will take place through interested organisations completing a Soft Market Testing Questionnaire ([secure.sourcedogg.com](https://secure.sourcedogg.com/profile/57fad8bb-8f6a-4ab1-afeb-531e2ec7e009/requests/23505)) and then individual meetings being held during December 2018. Information gathered from this early engagement will inform the procurement approach and service specification. Participation in this exercise is voluntary and the subsequent tender will be open to all organisations whether or not they have been involved in this process. It is anticipated that the tender will be issued in April 2019. If you are interested in this opportunity please complete the Soft Market Testing Questionnaire which can be accessed through this link [secure.sourcedogg.com](https://secure.sourcedogg.com/profile/57fad8bb-8f6a-4ab1-afeb-531e2ec7e009/requests/23505) to the SourceDogg e-procurement system.
